Pedro Sánchez announced in the morning that the king would go to Ceuta (but did not say when) and in the afternoon he met with Felipe VI. And the next day, the Spanish government also announced that its relations with the royal house are "good".
It seems extraordinary to me on the part of Pedro Sánchez. I admire him very much. I understand that he made the phrase, not at all woke, his own: "either all Moors or all Christians". Because Pedro Sánchez knows that, whatever he does, he will lose votes with Ceuta. If he declares that he will help the immigrants, he will lose votes. If he declares that he will send them back to their country, he will lose votes. If he declares nothing, he will lose votes. If he uses the word children to talk about minors, he will lose votes. If he uses the word scoundrels to talk about minors, he will lose votes. If he uses neither, he will lose votes. If he does a handstand, he will lose votes.
Morocco is a monarchy. Spain, too. The king of Morocco and the king of Spain have a lot in common, because all royal families, whether from Monaco, Saudi Arabia, Spain or Morocco, are alike. In this case, both own a yacht and surely they have met sailing in the Mediterranean and compared the meters of their length (even though sailing in the Mediterranean these days is a mess, because you can run into a diversity of things floating). Both have had a wife more difficult than usual, by monarchical standards (the Moroccan's has already divorced) and both have a palace with servants. That's why Pedro Sánchez, who is a crafty one, must have thought: "Let Felipe roll up his sleeves, because he can't lose a single vote, for reasons that don't need repeating".
